Please help! Paying by credit card via Paypal?

PoppyBee_2

Hi, i have paid for a few things from ebay using my credit card via paypal but i have just bought a pram from a friend, if i pay her via Paypal using my credit card will this be classed as a cash advance or a normal transaction?! Please help asap, i'm very confused and my friend needs the money soon. :think:

Thanks in advance lovely people!

It's a normal transaction, I use my credit cards on EBay all the time.

Your friend will just need to transfer the money from paypal into her bank account as soon as it hits her paypal. there is a fee for transfering balances less than £50 - sorry no idea what it is

If you bought it from a friend can't you just give her the cash or make a direct bank deposit? There will be charges to accept your credit card payment, so you'll have to pay her more than she wants so she gets the same amount of cash.

Good point Gromitt. I forgot about the paypal fees for receiving money...

I don't think theres a fee for withdrawing less than fifty quid any more.

Or the sender can choose to just pay the fees
